Very nice and cozy! Cabins were clean and tidy. The pool was well maintained and our kids loved it! Will definitely return and recommend this place to everyone I know!

The cabin was cute and clean. The pillows needed to be replaced laced. They were flat and old.
The kitchen was clean and was loaded with pretty much everything you would need.
The outside had a grill which was nice and a sitting area with pretty Adirondack chairs around the a fire pit.
Other than the pillows, we had a great stay.

The room was quite outdated, with the flooring being the only feature that appeared recently updated. The sheets were clean, although we chose to use our own.
The property could benefit from some landscaping and general interior updates. The bathroom would be more functional with a few wall hooks for towels and clothing. The air conditioning unit was very old, dusty, and appeared overdue for maintenance.
There were quite a few mosquitoes around the property. It would also be helpful to provide a drip coffee maker, a small table for eating, and additional hooks in the closet area for hanging clothes and personal items.
Overall, the stay was adequate, but several relatively simple improvements could make the accommodations much more comfortable and welcoming.

Loved how close it was. Loved how friendly and prompt the staff was (we had difficulties with our door code). Didn’t love the smell in the room. Smelled like mildew. Didn’t like that our room was NOTHING like advertised. There was no BEDROOM. It was a studio. The parking was less than ideal for units 8/9/10/11 (angled and made it difficult for anyone leaving the property). Loved the kitchenette in the room. Didn’t like the broken bathroom window (wouldn’t open) and the lack of exhaust fan in the bathroom. Also- mold on the bathroom ceiling in multiple spots. Okay for one night, but will take my chances at another hotel/motel/cabin- accommodation next time. Also- didn’t use the pool- open 10-10. Checkout was simple. No staff at the office… I don’t think ever. Texting, phone calls, and the app are the communication preferences. Also super thin walls. We rented room 9 and family rented 10. You could hear through the walls! Room 11 wasn’t being OVERLY loud, but they could be heard in room 10. And I don’t know if animals are allowed, but someone absolutely had their dog there!!
